ONE: it appears that the best person to talk to is the youth pastor. It appears that you trust him. Remember, he was your age once, and also had questions and concerns along the lines of yours.Since underwear is a garment of a personal nature (hidden by our clothes in everyday life), who knows, he might enjoy microwear himself! You are at an age where negotiation (as a lifelong skill) can be learned and mastered, so...have at it! Ask him for an appointment to discuss a private matter. I remember reading about one of President Kennedy's leading leadership points some years ago, and I try to practice it in all of my one-on-one interactions...establish steady eye contact with the other person. It is not a stare! You are establishing an open, empathetic connection, and projecting self-confidence. You have a goal in mind, and negotiating is part of your action plan to reach your goal. Establish some key talking points about why you would like to try men's thong underwear. Speak in a relaxed manner, making your points. Allow time for his response. The conversation is a two-way street, and, even at 15 years old, you are a young adult, and deserve a chance to state your views and make your case. (Two hints for talking points: personal comfort and support provided by a garment which is not visible to others in everyday life/ overall comfort in the Texas heat!) TWO: there is nothing unusual about your having concerns about sexuality in general, or your own sexuality in particular. It is an important, even necessary, step in your adult sexual maturity. You are indeed at the age where thoughts and questions about your own orientation will come to mind. You are establishing very important building blocks for your own lifelong approach to intimacy with a partner. Give yourself the time, and freedom, to make your way along this part of your life journey. The single best way to start this journey involves a key non-sexual aspect: work to make caring friendships with the other people in your life, not only fellow young men and young women, but also caring adults. Get involved in group activities with your peers, especially groups organized around your hobbies or favorite activities. Be open and friendly; learn to express yourself with poise. In time, you will start gaining a sense of who you are attracted to as a possible partner: trust me, it will happen at the right time for you! Yep, that's right! It's called...Life's Journey! Live well!
Hi mircobikiniman
Thank you so much for the advice. I really appreciate the advice you and everybody has given me these past few days. Thank y’all so much and I have a lot to learn and think about it for sure and i appreciate your explaining to me basically how I feel when it comes to sexuality. You and many others have made me real comfortable talking about things so personal and I really do appreciate it again. As far as youth pastor I would say you’re right I may have to ask him and I will follow the tips that you gave me on just being direct with him and giving him good reasons. That would be cool if he likes what you said small underwear I never thought of that but it would be funny to ask haha I will think of what and how I want to ask and will maybe ask him sometime during the week or maybe Sunday if possible we’ll see. I definitely don’t want to wing it I want to think it through for sure. Again thank you so much for your help and everyone has been so nice I appreciate it I really do and I want to say thank you for all the info you gave me definitely good things to know.
